Ex-Arsenal Midfielder, Mesut Ozil Names Best Player Of All Time

Mesut Ozil, a former Arsenal midfielder, has named who he thinks is the greatest football ever.

He named Portugal’s captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, as the best player of all time.

Ozil, who recently announced his retirement from football, played alongside Ronaldo for three seasons between 2010 and 2013 at Real Madrid.

The pair played 149 games together for Real Madrid, combining for an impressive 39 goals.

Speaking with MARCA, Ozil said: “It was a lot of fun playing with Cristiano Ronaldo, who, for me, is the best player of all time.

“We both understood each other very well on the pitch, it was perfect.

“I assisted and he scored. Giving passes to a player who almost never missed was a gift.”
